    I looked on youtube and you had exact same jeep and same dealt battery. This video was perfect. My daughter is out driving the yard as we speak. Found jeep at yard sale for $20. Only thing I did different was left the power wheels connector on instead of by passing it.. I made a commemt earlier about stripping the gears by adding more power. That's just what my neighbor told me when he seen what I was doing. Said he ruined the gears on motor but he also used 24v instead of 18v.. 18v might be fine.. Next addition for her jeep is I'm going to add l.e.d. lights for headlights and liquid nail a rubber strip around back tires from an old worn out bicycle tire. I heard you could also switch wheels from a kidstrac jeep bc there's comes with rubber arpumd the tire already for traction. They have a patent on it so that's why power wheels can't add rubber to theirs.

    • @mikewebster919
      @mikewebster919 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Cool. Glad to help. But watch out in adding traction....your def gonna start to smoke gears. The more traction you have, the more stress/torque your going to put on the gears. You can always replace the first drive with a metal one from mltoys.com. Good luck and happy moding. 😀

    • @mikewebster919
      @mikewebster919 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      At the very least get the controller that removes the auto stop after the pedal is released. It let's it freewheel rather than instant stop. It is less stress on the gears but you will need to make sure that you kid knows that it won't stop as quick. 😀

      Donovan Bryant Nothing. The only advantage to the steel first gear is that it being stronger takes the load of the new torque that is created because of increased voltage. The subsequent gears have far less load to them because of the gear reduction. The metal pinion gear from the motor will strip the plastic ones and obviously won't strip the metal ones. Make sense?

      Don't use rubber tires on these. You will blow the motor. They are intended for these tires to break loose. I was reading up on that as well. I did however see ml toys selling a regulated pedal. Almost like the trigger to most electric drill motors. The more you push the faster it goes. Also have the opposite on lifting the pedal. I might go this route.

    I would suggest greasing the gear with any excess grease inside the gearbox instead of just dropping the new gear in.
